Even if it is missing, one of our dentists who works with excellence must quickly replace it with an artificial tooth. Such procedures are important for improving the appearance of an individual, but they also promote good dental health and prevent irreparable tooth fracture or the migration of neighboring teeth.
Thanks to the bridges and crowns, our patients’ teeth have a radiant appearance, in addition to being stronger.
Why choose a crown?
The crown is a covering of the visible part of a tooth. It can be used for broken teeth, those repaired with a root canal treatment, or to cover teeth that have undergone major fillings.
When your tooth is too damaged to be repaired with a tooth. restoration, that is to say, filling or composite, a dentist of the Clinique Dentaire des Vallées de l’Outaouais must cover it with a crown to prevent any additional damage or subgingival fracture that can lead to its loss.
